Two Retro Channels for instant vintage vibe

Now, about the aforementioned coloration. Audient is famous for their ultra-clean mic pres – but that doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate the allure of added color. Whether enhancing a bass with a taste of growl or sparkling up a lead vocal, Audient ASP800 8-channel Microphone Preamp’s cutting-edge harmonic generation circuitry if just what you need. Retro Channels One and Two each feature Audient’s proprietary variable harmonic Colour controls, HMX and IRON. Serving up sonics reminiscent of 1960s tube designs and the coveted pastache of transformer-juiced ’70s British consoles, HMX and Iron will add a whole new glorious dimension to your audio. Season to taste.

HMX MOSFET drive – sweet, fat, and punchy

The Audient ASP800 8-channel Microphone Preamp’s custom harmonic distortion control. Harkening back to vintage tube preamp designs from the 1960s, HMX delivers a sweet, fat sound that’s works wonders on everything from electric guitars to bass synths to drums. HMX’s discrete MOSFET technology produces asymmetrical harmonic distortion that gives you the option of adding body and lushness to the ASP800’s pristine mic preamp, DI, or line input.
